Quick Auctions 3  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v3.1
by: Shadowed [More]

Quick Auctions is an auction tool to help speed up auctioning large quantities of items, especially canceling. While primarily Quick Auctions is built for large quantities of items, it can work fine for a few auctions as well. A bit of tweaking is required to get optimal settings, but it is very flexible and smart enough that you can use it for more than just mindlessly undercutting auctions by 1 copper every time. Summary window and craft queues are included so you do not have to memorize every item and quantity you need. Shows total materials required to craft as well as allowing you to click from the craft queue to craft so no searching through everything.

Slash command: /qa (/quickauctions)

Donations
A lot of time went into Quick Auctions, donations are appreciated but not necessary. And it's cheaper than buying gold while not being against the ToS!



Groups
Groups are how you manage what items should be managed by Quick Auctions. You can set auction settings either as a default, or per group giving you flexibility over everything without having to duplicate your settings 50 times. There are no limits to how many items can be grouped, see the configuration in /qa config to set them up.

Mail
Includes a timer in the top left of the mailbox indicating how much time before new mail data becomes available, and if you are not using Postal then QA provides its own auto looting for mail. The auto looter will work with the timer on the mailbox cache so it will loot everything, wait until new mail is available and then keep looting.

Auto mailing can now be done per item or per group to any character you want. For example, you can setup your banker to send uncut gems to your jeweler and you can setup your jeweler to send cut gems to your banker. The auto mailer is intelligent in when it sends mail off, and works best when using QA mail looter. If you are trying to loot herbs from your mailbox while auto mailing them to your scribe, it will send mail off whenever it sees your inventory is full. Basically, if you have 4 open slots it will auto mail/loot with only 4 slots, no more clearing out your bags to loot mail anymore!

General options

  • Smart undercutting - Instead of always using the undercut value, it will round it to the nearest gold piece if possible (10g99s -> 10g, 5g -> 5g - undercut price)
  • Smart cancel - Cancels auctions a bit smarter than usual, will cancel an item if you can re list it at a higher price and won't cancel it if items are below the threshold
  • Cancel with bid - Lets you choose if you want to cancel auctions with bids on them

Item options
  • Auto mail - Automatically mail items directly to your banker that are managed by QA
  • Post cap - How many of an item can be up at any one time (If you are undercut this number is reset)
  • Post time - How long to post an auction
  • Undercut - How much to undercut by
  • Bid percent - How much bid should be set to as a percentage of buyout
  • Threshold - Cap on how low an auction can go, if it'll be posted below the threshold price it won't be posted
  • Per auction - How many items to post per an auction
  • Fallback - If no other auctions are up, how much should it list an item for
  • Fallback cap - How high above the fallback an item can go, helps prevent posting a single Frostweave Cloth at 100g if someone sets it at an extraordinary price
  • Auto fallback - If the market price is below your thresold, QA will automatically post it at the fallback price
  • Maximum price gap - How much of a price difference is allowed between the lowest and second lowest items before QA undercuts the second lowest, this will also cancel your auctions if the price gap gets too high
  • Ignore stacks over - Allows you to ignore any auctions with a stack above X when determining price, useful if you want to post against the market price of 1 Abyss Crystal rather than the market price of posting 20 at once
What changed between 2 and 3?
While the configuration in QA2 was an improvement over the original QA, it still wasn't good enough. QA3 has a rewritten configuration and should be much easier for people to understand and use without having to learn to use QA through trial and error.

Scan speed has been increased quite a bit again and has been tightened up to reduce the chance of conflicts. In previous versions, QA would Query -> Wait 0.50 seconds -> Check Data -> Either parse it or wait 0.50 seconds, this made sure that whenever auctions were scanned all data was available including who posted them. The problem is, most of this data becomes available instantly after your initial 1-3 seconds. In 3 it's been changed: Query -> Check Data -> Wait 0.50 Seconds -> Parse or wait 0.50 seconds. Best case this means you will save 0.50 seconds per query (50 seconds/100 items), and worse case you won't see any speed increase.

Mail has been improved to make life easier for people, both a mail scrapper and a smarter mail sender were added. See the mail section above for more information.

Setting scope was improved, most basic options in QA including group settings have been moved to the global profile while server/faction specific settings can still be changed per profile. Letting you setup different profiles of how QA should handle different groups, without having to duplicate all of your group list over and over.
QA3 isn't done yet, and I have more planned still like summary improvements and easy buying of items.

Shadowed:
- Fix positioning of tradeskill frame
- Fixes for 4.3
- Fix tradeskill button positioning
- Should make canceling work again with hardware events
- Make open all work again, add posting back with necessary hardware event work, some initial work on canceling
- Initial conversions to WoWAce, nothing should actually work yet

Is there a way to not post an auction at all if someone on the white list has that item listed already? Matching their price is better than undercutting them, but it still greatly reduces their chances of selling the item.

I just notice that if somebody posts a glyph for a ridiculous amount, QA will match that price minus the undercut amount. Is there an option that I can use to prevent this from happening? I don't want QA to ever post a glyph for 9000g heheheh

Multi threading probably won't be in for a bit due to a mix of time/need to plan it out more, however, I have something more useful in the meantime.

You can now group items into your own categories, and manage them through that category, for example

/qa addgroup autumn <Rigid Autumn's Glow link>
/qa addgroup autumn <Smooth Autumn's Glow link>
/qa addgroup autumn <Mystic Autumn's Glow link>
/qa addgroup autumn <Brilliant Autumn's Glow link>

Then you can do

/qa threshold 20g autumn

And Rigid, Smooth, Mystic, Brilliant (and anything else you were to add in the future to the autumn category) will have a 20g threshold.

This means configurations now work in the order of: Item Name > Group > Item Type > Default, so if you have something set specifically to an item, it still overrides the group settings.

Also note, that next push I am going to move the item formats to link to save space and make it more consistent, what this means is that all settings done per item will be reset (minus group lists).

tqphan: It'll probably get fixed once I rewrite the posting stuff to add multi threaded auctions, once I get around to that.

Rotten: I just tested it quickly and I cannot duplicate it, I think what you're seeing is the smart canceling it's just not being completely accurate as to why it was canceled.

Basically, lets say you have Runed Scarlet Ruby, and the auction house looks something like:

You: Runed Scarlet Ruby x 1, 90g bid/90g buyout
Someone else (On whitelist): Runed Scarlet Ruby x 1, 85g bid/85g buyout
You Runed Scarlet Ruby x 1, 85g bid/85g buyout

Smart canceling (You can disable this with /qa smartcancel) it will cancel the one posted at 90g bid/buyout, and it will say you were undercut by the person on your whitelist.

Ok, if you remember, I posted a problem about QA not posting all glyphs it's supposed to... Well um I made another mule because my current mule is running out of bag space and with the new mule the problem disappeared... Very strange... my old mule still has the problem but not the new mule......

Alright, can you give me the message it gives exactly for canceling? Specifically I want the item name, the buyout/bid that you're posting it at, and the buyout/bid they are posting it at.

It's case sensitive, you sure you didn't put "foo" instead of "Foo"
